Police have arrested a man suspected of shooting his ex-girlfriend in the head Thursday morning.

Juan Sosa, 40, has been charged with aggravated assault, San Antonio police said.

The 30-year-old victim, who survived the shooting and was undergoing surgery at University Hospital Friday night, was driving to work in the 1600 block of Ceralvo Street at 7 a.m. Thursday when Sosa allegedly pulled his vehicle alongside hers, drew a gun and opened fire. Sosa allegedly pumped out at least 10 shots, three of which hit the victim in the head, arm and torso, according to police.

Detective Robert Valadez said the victim had recently ended her relationship with Sosa.

“They had been living together for a short time,” Valadez explained. “She had left (Sosa) for good and he was not happy about that.”

After the shooting, the victim was able to name Sosa to investigators and provide his address, where police found a vehicle “still warm from being driven” but not Sosa himself, said Valadez.
